Hi Pele
This can be achieved in a couple of ways, depending on whether or not you
want to watch the video first.
If not, probably the best way is to let DigiTV record them as MP2 files in
the first place and convert them toMP3's with CDEX. You can make DigiTV
produce MP2 files via the recordings settings in the DigiTV setting menu,
which is found in the file menu.
First navigate the settings tree by using the left cursor twice and the down
cursor four times. This will settle you on the recordings branch where you
should right cursor twice into the general page.
Tab four times to the recorded file attributes - audio description and
uncheck this box. You will lose the audio description on the resultant file,
but if you don't do this, the sound file will be slow and contain lots of
digital squeaks and blips.
Then tab four times until you get to the recording file extension TV list,
where you should cursor down once to set it to MP2.
Finally tab seven times to the O.K. button and press the spacebar to get
back into the main DigiTV screen.
DigiTV will now record all TV programmes as MP2 sound files which will play
in WinAmp, but not on an MP3 player. However, you can convert MP2 files into
MP3 very simply within CDEX via the convert/re-encode compressed files menu
option.
If however you want to watch the video first, and then extract the audio,
this can be done by using the demux tool within DigiTV , but it's a little
complicated and if you write to me off list, I'll send you detailed
instructions, which when you've done it once soon becomes second nature. If
you happen to have recorded an audio described programme, you can also use
this tool to split the multiplexed audio description track from the rest of
the soundtrack and then merge them into one MP3 file via gold wave or sound
forge. I've never attempted it myself, but Nebula assure me it can be done.
This will allow you to make MP3 copies of your favourite TV programmes
within a few minutes, rather than playing them and recording the output from
your soundcard.

Subject: [access-uk] Nebula: Software for Extracting Audio
Hi Everyone
I know we have been here before, but I was not interested at the time.
Does anyone know of a way of extracting the audio from an MPG file
produced by the Nebula Digitv box? I know this can be done by using a
tool like
Goldwave to record in real time, but I thought there might be a quicker
way. I am not too interested in getting the audio description.
I downloaded a program called Video Audio Converter which I thought might
do it, but did not find it very accessible.
Any information welcome.
